Wigan Warriors vs Huddersfield Giants prediction
Andy Kelly takes charge of Huddersfield Giants for this encounter after the club disposed of Luke Robinson following a fifth consecutive loss last weekend. The Giants are still without a point in Super League and it’s extremely unlikely that we will see that change here when considering the excellence of this Wigan Warriors side. Matt Peet’s side bent but didn’t break against York Knights most recently, winning 23-22 at the Brick Community Stadium.
Expect the Warriors to find this game significantly more straightforward despite the return of some key Huddersfield players. This Giants team are levels behind Wigan and over the course of 80 minutes, the hosts are likely to blow away their opponents and win by a wide margin.
